10 Gary Rowells
Striker
They were called Beezewax from Norway - they played Saturday afternoon at Pop Recs 2 weeks ago and were amazing. Last year they had Martha, Beezewax, the Pale White and Little Comets - a fantastic line up. This year there really is only the Roxy Girls and maybe there is a rapper girl worth seeing. I'm being harsh but this has been a favourite of mine for the past few years and this year's line up seems such a drab let down.Judging by last year's audience, it's a lot more mixed than say a traditional Split Festival crowd so I guess it's difficult to get the balance right. I tend to go with an open mind and hope to be surprised by someone. Last year there was a band in one of the smaller tents, they were possibly Norwegian, and I really enjoyed them without knowing anything about them.
I was working last year and dotting about between various groups of mates when not working so I'm hoping just to kick back and enjoy the day this time around.
